GTA Online players will receive the first of two 'stimulus package' deposits of in-game cash this week, Rockstar has said.
Rockstar previously announced plans (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/433473/gta-online-players-to-receive-in-game-cash-following-launch-problems/) to provide every GTA Online player with in-game cash as compensation for the issues that have plagued the online game since its launch on October 1.

That's equivalent to a real world offering of £6.75, the price users can opt to pay to purchase a Bull Shark cash card worth 500,000 GTA$.
The first $250,000 deposit will turn up in players' in-game bank accounts "this week", Rockstar has confirmed.
The second deposit is planned to happen "by the end of the month".Check here for more information (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/433473/gta-online-players-to-receive-in-game-cash-following-launch-problems/) on how it will all work.
We said in our GTA Online appraisal (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/432449/features/gta-online-appraisal-sandbox-of-tricks/): "With Rockstar planning frequent DLC and updates, and user-created missions on the way, GTA Online could have a long shelf life. The only let-downs at the moment are the lack of co-op heist missions, a slightly bloated interface, and some strange design decisions like being unable to tag stolen high-end cars and make them your personal vehicle. Otherwise, this is a supremely fun online toy box with a remarkable amount of variety in its missions - if you can connect, that is."
